George Risk Industries 184-12-B Recessed Door Contact

Product Description

The George Risk Industries 184-12-B is a recessed steel door contact designed for use in security and alarm system installations. This single-unit contact mounts flush within a drilled cavity in the door or door frame, providing a clean, concealed profile that resists tampering and vandalism. The steel construction offers durability in demanding environments. Sold individually, this contact is suited for professional alarm installers and security technicians working on residential or light commercial access-point monitoring applications.

Recessed door contacts like the 184-12-B are commonly installed at entry doors, interior doors, and access panels where a surface-mount contact is not appropriate or desirable. The brown finish allows the contact to blend with wood door frames and similar trim, minimizing visual impact. This type of contact is a standard component in hardwired security and intrusion-detection systems.

Key Features

• Recessed mounting profile keeps the contact concealed and tamper-resistant
• Steel construction for durability in door and frame applications
• Brown finish for low-visibility integration with wood or similarly colored frames
• Single-unit quantity sold per each
• Compatible with standard hardwired alarm and access-control panel wiring

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style recessed door contact for use in hardwired residential and light commercial security and intrusion-detection systems requiring a concealed door or frame-mounted magnetic contact.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed alarm or low-voltage technician. A correctly sized hole must be drilled into the door or frame to accept the recessed contact body before mounting. Ensure the security panel is powered down and the zone circuit is de-energized before making any wiring connections. Follow all applicable local low-voltage and electrical codes during installation.
